My Dog Got Hurt Today
I was taking my dog, Sheba, out for a walk around 2pm this afternoon,when she was attacked by 3 Pit Bulls that got out of their yard.2 of them were like bulldozers, and the other one was smaller, a younger dog I presumed. 1 of the adults bit her on the right side of her face, right shoulder, and upper right front leg. The other adult dog sniffed her, but did not bite her. The younger dog jumped on her back, but did not bite her either.
I kicked, swung my fists, and screamed bloody murder. I dropped to the ground and grabbed her away from the Pit that was biting her. Yes, I literally wrenched my dog away from the jaws of that Pit. The dogs retreated back to their yard. A neighbor called 911, and another neighbor went and got my husband. We were about a block from the house.
I got skinned knees from dropping and grabbing Sheba away from the Pit. Sheba has a few puncture marks and a cut on the right side of her face, and a few more puncture marks on her shoulder and leg. Her right side of her face is a bit swollen right now, but she will be OK.
Sheba is up to date on her shots. Since her injuries were not serious, I did not take her to the Vet. I checked her out top to bottom and cleaned her up. Our usual Vet was closed by the time the police took the report. I am glad she was not seriously hurt, as the nearest Vet that was open, was a good 45 minutes away.
I was lucky that these Pits were only animal aggressive, not people aggressive. Otherwise, I might not be here tonight to type this post.
This is not the first time Sheba has been attacked. In the past 9 years, Sheba has been attacked by a Husky, 2 Rotts, and a Great Dane/Boxer mix. It is not the breed, it is the deed and the irresponsible owners.
For the record, Sheba is a 9 years old Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Her mother dog was AKC registered. I never registered her with the AKC, because she is a part of my family, and not a show dog. Sheba was born with multiple genetic defects and maladies. She is deaf, partially blind, has asthma, and was born with malformed female organs. She was spayed at a young age.
Sheba is a sweet lap dog, a big one, but the gentlest dog I have ever owned. She loves everybody and everything. She sleeps with our cat, and licks/grooms him.
I usually carry my cell phone with me, and a box cutter. I didn't have either on me this afternoon when I took out Sheba for a walk. My bad, and I will never forget again.

Re: My Dog Got Hurt Today
Sheba is OK. It has been 2 weeks since she was attacked.The last scab came off one of the bites on her face the other day. She was real jumpy the first few days, but now she is back to normal. I had to keep her quarantined for 10 days on my property, as the law says that even though Sheba was the victim, and had her shots, she had to be quarantined also. Sheba was released from her quarantine this past tuesday. She can go back on her long walks again.
The people that own the Pitts got a citation from the city. They had no lisence, and cannot produce shot records. They said they moved here from Milwaukee 3 months ago. It was determined that the adult male Pitt was the one that attacked Sheba. The owner claimed the other 2 Pitts were "just visiting". That is a crock, as all 3 Pitts had been at that house since those people moved in. Since the attack on Sheba,though, the other 2 Pitts have dissapeared.
As for taking them to court, it is a waste of time. There are a whole lot of people crammed into that house, and they appear to be somewhat destitute. You can't get blood out of a turnip. I am just glad my Sheba is OK, and that I didn't get bit.

 Quoting: tiger1



YOU are the irresponsible owner.

Walk your dog in a safe area or get your back yard fenced in to let your dog run there.

That your dog has been attacked so many times by so big dogs is indication you are a SHIT OWNER or your dog is improperly trained.

Either way, you're a shit owner.

By your own words you are convicted.

Leave it to the Germans to make the situation better...

Sling shot or a bb pistol will help keep the other dogs away. They learn rather quick, no more that two shots per dog and they will figure it out. 3 for Germans.

My dog is on her regulation length leash, has her shots and lisence, is a meek and mild mannered dog who loves everybody and everything. She is deaf, partially blind, and has asthma. She walks well on a leash. She is a very well behaved dog, and always has been. The other dogs, no shots, no lisence, running loose, are the product of irresponsible owners. My yard is now totally fenced in, including my driveway, which WAS open. We were attacked in our own yard, via entry through my driveway, TWICE. A neighbors loose Rott got us at our back steps, and a Chow/Collie mix almost killed our former dog, a Chesapeake Bay Retriever, as we were sitting on our patio. BTW, we have had to deal with loose Chihuahas too. I just kick them out of the way.
Actually, I think the best solution would be for me to carry the universal equalizer, when this old lady walks her old dog.

Re: My Dog Got Hurt Today
Op,

I am happy to hear that your dog is aright however if you see a dog running free report it to animal control and provide the address of the owner if possible as all dog owners need to be responsible for their dogs.

If a warning fails to catch the attention of the owners, the first time the following summons will do the trick. If legal in your state then carry pepper spray whenever you walk the dog s that will immediately subdue an aggressive.

I can't use pepper spray. Sheba has asthma, and I have Allergy Induced Asthma/COPD. One whiff, and we are in trouble. I do call when i see a loose dog. The Pitts that attacked Sheba came out of the side gate of their yard. Someone didn't shut it. Their back gate was padlocked shut.

On a happier note...

I took my dog (Shephard/Lab/hound 100lbs) for a bike-ride tonight. On the way a neighbor with a nice old retriever/mut (about the same size) approached fast enough that I had to stop.

The owner was nice and the dogs got along fine. We got to talking... turns out he knows my guitar instructor, and saw me ride by with the guitar strapped onto my bike earlier in the day.

"Any day you get to ride is a good day"... It was a good day. Here's a short-38-second vid of my dog runnin with my bike (electrified).

I cleaned her up good.I keep a supply of antibiotic cream, as we garden a lot, and get frequent nicks, thorns, and scratches. The Vet was already closed, and it was a long car ride to the emergency Vet 3 towns away. If she had been more seriously injured, we would have had to make the drive.
